clock: Define and use new clock_display_freq()

It's common to want to print a human-readable indication of a clock's
frequency. Provide a utility function in the clock API to return a
string which is a displayable representation of the frequency,
and use it in qdev-monitor.c.

Before:

  (qemu) info qtree
  [...]
  dev: xilinx,zynq_slcr, id ""
    clock-in "ps_clk" freq_hz=3.333333e+07
    mmio 00000000f8000000/0000000000001000

After:

  dev: xilinx,zynq_slcr, id ""
    clock-in "ps_clk" freq_hz=33.3 MHz
    mmio 00000000f8000000/0000000000001000

+If you are only interested in the frequency for displaying it to
+humans (for instance in debugging), use ``clock_display_freq()``,
+which returns a prettified string-representation, e.g. "33.3 MHz".
+The caller must free the string with g_free() after use.
